Touch a Life

Touch a life
Fill it with hope
With the light of beauty
God has blessed you with
Sunlight hidden from the world
Can’t help life to grow in the darkness
Shine your light on another soul
Give your life a purpose as God intended
A beautiful spirit is hiding in the dark
Waiting for you to help it fly.

I Can't

I can’t let you go
Though I haven’t really even tried
To do so would somehow mean
I have moved on without you in my life
The idea of that just wouldn’t be true
That I could somehow bury your love
Tie a nice bow around it and stick it in a box
Take a look at it, maybe once a year
Well, that just wouldn’t be enough
My love is such, that I’m a glutton for everything you
Even though I already know what I will find
I come back hoping each and every time
For a beautiful ending
The one where you say you love me
And I say the same
Just before the curtain goes down
The crowd roars its approval
Cue the beautiful music
We live happily ever after.

Your E

E, I dreamt of you last night
It was wonderful to see your beautiful face again
We traveled across the ocean
To the land of your birth
To see you in your element did my heart good
This is where you belong with me
Showing me who you are, your history
The woman you are now was born of this place
A land of simplicity and ideals
In a perfect world we would plant roots here
Raise a family here and love each other with passion
Following in the footsteps of your ancestors
In a few minutes this dream will end
And I will be back again without you my E
How could this be you’re not in my life
The Gods of love must be turning over in their sleep
That we sleep alone without each other
When the thing I want most is to find the road back to your heart.

The Truth

An explanation of all things magical
Isn’t necessary for one to believe
That beyond their understanding
There are things that are just unexplainable
To go out on a limb
Give your imagination credence
That another life is happening
So surreal that the line between reality and fiction
Is blurred beyond recognition
All you’re left with is the truth
That resides in who you are
Take note for a minute
During the course of your day
Of something indiscriminate
Something you would normally dismiss
Imagine you are that thing
Give it life even though it might be lifeless
Embody its essence the way you would
With something that you love dearly
The truth will reveal itself to be
That somehow we are all connected
Even when the truth of it is hidden
It’s right there for us to see
All you have to do is keep looking.

Smoldering Energy

A fire is still smoldering
A touch from you builds an eruption
That’s been in the making but not quite lit
That look you’re giving to me
Sends me reeling and for a moment,
I lose all my senses, but it’s you again
Pulling me gently into your energy
It’s a beautiful thing when you have a lady
Secure in her sexuality
To allow you free reign of her body
You are the embodiment of heat
Winter this year won’t be so cold
As I lay naked in your warmth.

Mindful(l) Aphrodisiac

You know I miss you
Without me ever having to say so again
I know you feel it
Even when we haven’t even spoken
The intrigue of your company
Is all that I seek for now
If anything else comes of it
Then the natural order of things will be complete
I find you fascinating
Far beyond your physical prowess
To watch your mind in perpetual motion
Is a scintillating aphrodisiac I wish to partake of
If you allow me this delicacy of a treat
Forever will I be indebted to your will
You are a woman, my equal in every facet
I look forward to discovering all the nuances of who you are
Maybe one day, we can be one together.

Love You Too

You are in love
Your heart is on your face
I wonder if he knows
How your spirit sings with joy
He must be aware
Of what love has done to you
A moment in your presence
And I’m feeling that I love you too.

Friend of Mine

It’s been years now since we’ve lost touch
Often I wonder how you are
You were a friend to me when I had lost myself
You gave me your strength to see me through
I know now you were an angel sent by God
He knew I was at my weakest
My heart ravaged by doubt and despair
The grace of your friendship was comforting and healing
You showed me the true beauty of the human spirit
Wherever you are today,
You have a friend in me for life
Anything you ask of me is yours
You will forever have my love.

(Wrote this for a friend of mine who helped me through a rough patch a few years ago....Thank you, Andrea.)

Show Her

Touch her heart
Not with words
But with actions that show you deserve
All that she has to offer and more
Show her you’re a man first
Then your words will have more meaning
And when she lets you into her heart
Love her,
Like you won’t love another woman ever again.

A Chance Given

A chance given
Is a person remembered forever
The impact of an unselfish act
Makes you reach inside to find out who you are
To find that person living beneath unfulfilled dreams
Now, you not only want to be better for yourself
The mantle of responsibility
Makes you walk that much taller
Your head held just a little bit higher
The flower that once slept in darkness
Has been illuminated with confidence
All because someone took a chance on you
A chance given will never be forgotten
Pass on this blessing to the next person
Keep the circle of giving alive
Give, what was once given to you.

Heart Hurts

And my heart hurts
Even though I know why,
I don’t know why
But I know enough to know that something is missing
Something taken for granted and since it's been gone
I feel unable to move forward
At a standstill I am walking in circles
Somehow hoping when this darkness lifts
You will be there as you once were
And my heart hurts and mere words,
From those who just don’t know won’t be of any comfort
Only you, can lift my spirits
Bring me to that place again
When my heart was at peace.

The Sweetness of You

You are the constant bearer of gifts
Sweet fruits that once tasted
Can never be forgotten
I find myself unable to simply move on
Pretending that she could be you
When only you can play that role
Of being my woman that you so easily won
Your beauty is subtle like the first scent of spring being born
And it could be easily be missed
But I am a keen observer of human nature
And know that words don’t always say what they mean
Your actions reveal your true feelings for me
The sweetness of you in every kiss, every touch
Leaves me in constant awe
That somehow, you’ve seen something in me
A light, a beacon, drawing your aura even closer
I won’t disappoint you my love
I will safeguard your heart with my life.

One Day in Your Life

One of these days when you least expect
I will love you the way you deserve
To say words I don’t yet believe
But to know that tomorrow will bring me that much closer
To discovering the truth that you already know
Will make me love you that much deeper
And because you possess the virtue of patience
For me, you somehow waited
You knew, I would follow the truth of my heart
Leading me into your love
Here I am
Here you are
When love is real
It can’t be torn asunder.

Mortally Wounded

How could such a beautiful mouth
Spew such hurtful words
When once it only spoke of love
Speechless I am from any kind of banter
Your onslaught has left me somewhat shattered
So I stay quiet as my hurt festers
My heart is an open wound of feelings
Prone to mysterious maladies, sometimes unseen
A hurt like this can’t be hidden
It shadows me everyday and night
Until you come to heal my heart,
I will remain mortally wounded.

Swollen

My lips are swollen
From wanting you so much
Touch it gently
Feel me pulsating with want
To feel you inside me once again
Take your time, slow down
Take the scenic route
There’s no hurry to get there
Once you arrive be good to me
For being such a good woman and waiting so patiently
I know, only you can make me purr
Bring out my claws to dig deep in your back
Now fill me up with all of your inches
I won’t be asking you for more
I will take all that you have to give
Until my lips throb with sweet pain
And you’ve come again and again
Rest my love,
When you’re ready again to take what’s yours
It will be here waiting for you, always.

To Forget

Here I sit lost in thought
Quietly trying to recollect every memory we’ve ever shared
What if one day I awoke to find every memory of you gone?
Your smile would be forgotten
The way we kissed so tenderly,
Indeed your lips are a delicacy
I am only too happy to treat them as if they’re near extinction
You deserve that much from me, my best every time
How could I ever forget you?
To forget you would be to forget me
It would be as if our love never happened
So I will lock you away in a place in my heart
Where you will remain pure and untouched

Land of Nod

Before you visit the land of nod
Where dreams create a reality of their own
Always hold this thought as close
As I’ve always held you in my heart
That not a single day has gone by
That I haven’t wished to have you by my side
But another one now holds your heart
Loving you as you once did me
How cruel this game of love can be
Even after it’s taken all you have
You still want her to come back for more
For that one last chance at happiness
Keeps us hanging on long after,
We should have already left.

Kissing You

Just so you know I don’t kiss everyone like this
Kissing is a slow seductive dance
With a beautiful woman in your arms
An exchange of deeply held thoughts
As you share the words in your heart
Everything that needs to be said
Is spoken when our lips touch
There are no more secrets
You now know how I’ve always felt
Now kiss me some more
Only you can make me this wet
I’m swimming in myself
Until you come to release
What’s been waiting here only for you.
